GCU FACULTY SUPERVISOR NAME:
Storey used multiple modalities to teach her science lesson on the life stages of caterpillars. She has a diverse self-contained classroom and her lesson plan met the
needs of each student. Storey communicates with parents in conferences and IEP meetings. She collaborates with colleagues to discuss strategies, resources, and
assessment results. She participates in professional development opportunities with her school and district.
CLINICAL PRACTICE EVALUATION 3
Storey provides opportunities for students to learn in multiple ways through the use of multisensory activities. She differentiates instruction as needed when she
sees that students are having difficulty understanding a concept. She used great visuals that supported the academic science language of the life stages of
butterflies. She uses classroom technology comfortably, such as the projector and smart board. She integrated the book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar", videos,
listening and writing activities, and technology to assist her students' multiple ability levels.
CLINICAL PRACTICE EVALUATION 3
Storey linked prior knowledge on butterflies before introducing new vocabulary and concepts. She used the smart board and projector to enhance this lesson.
Students got their own butterfly cups with real caterpillars to observe and write about in their science journals. She gave many opportunities to practice the
academic language of the life stages of caterpillars.
CLINICAL PRACTICE EVALUATION 3
Storey provided reading, writing, observation time and related this theme to students' real world experiences with butterflies. Students had opportunities to share
their ideas and experiences.

and learning progress to guide her planning. She knows the IEP accommodations of her students and provides them as required.
CLINICAL PRACTICE EVALUATION 3
Storey gave direct instruction in the lesson and then guided students' individual work in their journals. She coached students by giving feedback as they practiced
observation and writing skills. Storey asks questions that guide students to find the answers they are looking for and uses sentence stems for the academic
vocabulary to help scaffold instruction. Her questioning are at the correct learning level of her students.
